How could Edwin not know about this? Otherwise, he wouldn’t have to worry about so many things. But there were many things that he couldn’t tell Joline in detail, so he could only vaguely say, “I know what I’m doing.”
Joline didn’t want to interfere too much in the young people’s affairs, so she just reminded him a little. Judging from how important Caroline was to Edwin, he would probably notice these problems. It was up to him to solve them.
She hung up the phone and called Caroline.

Joline said matter-of-factly, “What’s the problem? As the future mistress of the Anderson family, it’s enough for you to attend.”
Even though Caroline was not interested in the tea party, she still wanted to get to know more people. This way, she would have more information channels in the future. Thus, she agreed readily. “I’ll go back and prepare now.”
“It’s enough for you to dress yourself up beautifully. I’ll naturally prepare the other things.” Joline quickly hung up the phone and then instructed Harriman, “Caroline has agreed, so prepare another visit gift.”
The location of the tea party was at a teahouse, and the owner was the lady of the Ford family. Joline wanted to refuse, but her good friend, Mrs. Michael, called her. “I heard that the lady will be there too.”
The lady that Michael was talking about was the wife of Mr. Hall, the newly-appointed highest governor.
Although the Anderson family had a huge influence in the business world, they still had to show some respect to the big shots in the political world. Also, if they had a good relationship with them, business would be smoother.
Mr. Hall had the same background as his predecessors. After graduating from a well-known Institute of Law, he entered a large law firm and was recommended by someone to be elected as a local council member. From then on, he entered politics.
It had been less than a month since he was elected. Recently, the couple had been traveling around to publicize the policy and were very busy. The reason Mrs. Hall had attended the tea party was that she and Mrs. Ford had been university classmates and had a close relationship.
During the election, Joline had met with Mrs. Hall once at a party. They had talked for more than ten minutes, and Joline had simply expressed the support of the Anderson family.
Perhaps it was because Mrs. Hall was also a lawyer, so she gave people the impression that she was a very capable woman.
“She’s not a difficult person to get along with, but now that her status has gone up, she has to put on airs.” Joline drove to the villa and picked up Caroline.

The so-called ‘flowing water chief,’ the ‘iron landlord.’ The chief executive would change every few years, but the big families that had been rooted in this land for hundreds of years were the pillars of this land.
Therefore, if they were to really clash, the Anderson family did not have to be afraid at all. However, there was no need to go to such an extent. It was best for everyone to get along in harmony and cooperate mutually.
Caroline thought about the relationships that Joline mentioned and replied, “I know. It’s my first time attending a tea party like this anyway. I’ll just follow you and watch and learn.”
Joline was worried that Caroline would have stage fright or act inappropriately because she didn’t have proper etiquette. So, she left an hour earlier so that she could remedy the problem in time and teach Caroline more.
But it was obvious that Caroline was a child that no one had to worry about. Be it her clothes or makeup, they were all very suitable. Her words and actions were also irreproachable. After all, she was a child who had received a proper education from a young age. Even if she had been abandoned for many years, she could still present these things.
Joline patted her hand in relief. “You don’t have to be so serious. A tea party is also a relaxing occasion. Everyone can just socialize normally.”
Since Joline left early and she didn’t need to worry about Caroline, the other guests weren’t here yet when they arrived at the teahouse.
Meanwhile, in the banquet hall of the teahouse, Mrs. Ford was chatting with Mrs. Hall at a long table. When she heard that the Anderson family’s old lady had arrived, Mrs. Ford was a little surprised..
